Cygwin usage

Hi List,

I am using Cygwin on Windows XP.   Every time I try to run bin/nutch I
get the following error:

$ bin/nutch
bin/nutch: line 15: syntax error near unexpected token `$'in\r''
'in/nutch: line 15: `case "`uname`" in

Hopefully it is a simple problem.

Regards,

Bob Brehm

This is because windows style "\r\n" is present in the script.

You can clean the script by opening vi editor and issuing the
following commands.

:set ff=unix
:wq

If that doesn't work for you, try this:-

cp bin/nutch nutch.bak
cat nutch.bak | tr -d "\r" > bin/nutch

This should remove "\r" wherever present and your script should run.
We discussed this earlier too.

Is uname installed? Is the cygwin bin directory in your path?

I'm running cygwin on XP and it's working for me.
